MASERATI BORA £13,866
Now in regular production once more, following reorganisation of the company, the extremely fast mid-engined Bora has a light alloy V8 power unit with four chain-driven overhead camshafts, driving through a five-speed gearbox. It is purely a two-seater. Pedals are automatically adjustable to ensure a comfortable driving position and the ventilated disc brakes are power operated from an engine-driven hydraulic pump.

MASERATI KHAMSIN £14,980
Taking over from the fabulous Ghibli was no easy assignment but the Khamsin has special advantages, independent rear suspension and two features inherited from the Citroen SM, speed sensitive power steering and power-operated hydraulic brakes. Bertone designed the hatchback body which has two occasional seats in the rear. The engine is a light alloy V8 with four overhead camshafts and the car has air conditioning.
